Lady cysts

Mmmn not a good title as you can see

I am all for self examination and really promote this. At the end of the week I noticed I had what seemed like a graze and was sore when I wiped my self after going to the toilet. That has now turned into a lump that is quite tender even when I sit. Googled it and it appears to be a cyst, visiting the nurse tomorrow for routine blood tests and am hoping I can get in to see a doc. Will let you all know what happens.

Keep chekcing for lumps and bumps ladies x

I agree, self checking and doing something about it straight away if you find anything untoward has to be the best way, lms. Hope you get on OK tomorrow. xx

Last night the pain was unbearable and still after popping pain killers I didn't get any sleep.
I had 'another' hot bath at five am and presto! Relief! The duct unblocked itself! Can't tell you how much I was pleased and managed to get an hour or so worth of sleep. It is still quite swollen but no where near as painful to sit or walk
Doctors this morning for a blood test and then this after for an exam.
I googled some more it appears I had a Bartholin's Cyst/infection. Quite interesting and never thought we had a gland there! Wish me luck at the docs and come away with anti biotics and not a lancing or catheter like I could have had it not righted itself.

UPDATE - It was a blocked duct, got given anti biotics and all is well The wonders of google
